Dear friends,

the word this week is aya.m, the nominative singular of ima,
demonstrative pronoun, this (in both masculine and feminine genders).

There are words that I am not sure of, please help.

DN24 Pathika Sutta CSCD48/PTS3.28
Yo ca me aya.m, bhante, bhagavati pasaado, tamevaaha.m
saadhukamanurakkhissaamii.

yo (rel. pron., nom. sing. of ya) which, that.
ca (ind.) and.
me (per. pron., dat.) to/for me.
bhante (voc.) venerable Sir.
bhagavati (loc.) the Blessed One, the Buddha.
pasaada (m.) clearness, brightness; joy, faith; the faculty of senses.
tamevaaha.m = ta.m + eva + aha.m ??
saadhuka.m (adv.) well, thoroughly.
anurakkhati (v.) to guard, preserve, protect, shield.
saadhukamanurakkhissaamii = saadhukam + anurakkhissaamii : I will
carefully take care ??


I look forward to your suggestions and comments.
